A club match will be held at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst (RMAS) on Wednesday 29th November. The relay team format will be used. This match is only open to intermediate fencers, i.e. less than 2 years experience.
Fencing will start at 7.45pm.
If you are interested, please let us know by emailing the club or speaking to Phil by no later than Tuesday 22nd November.
IMPORTANT NOTE - the match will of course be held on a military base. For security purposes, you will need to bring photo ID with you, plus (if you are driving there) give me a note of your car registration number, plus the make, model and colour details. I will need to give a full names and car registration details for those coming to RMAS no later than a week in advance of the match, so if you do not do this in time you cannot fence.
You will need to enter the base via the Staff College Gate (GU15 4NP), which is on the A30 London Road, opposite a Premier Inn. Phil can provide you with a map showing directions from the entrance to where we will be parking, in the Old College HQ car park, from where Officer Cadets will meet you and escort us to the nearby venue.
